Oct 15, 2013

I can't seem to copy a part of a layer into another layer. When I do that, the pasted layer becomes invisible. The pasted layer seems to be visible only when it's on its own layer.

Please see attached xcf.

GIMP :: Pasted Layer Not Visible

Jan 1, 2012

I was working in Gimp last night with no problems at all. I modified an image of some fabric to create a texture then pasted that texture into another image and had happy results. I'm trying to do it again tonight with a different texture I created but when I try to paste it into the other image the pasted layer is not visible. The layer transparency is set to 100, and, of course, the 'show layer" eye is clicked.

GIMP :: How To Make Any Layer But Top Visible

Nov 13, 2012

Basically, I'm trying to make simple animations. For some reason, I can't figure out how to make any layer but the top visible. Is there any way to essentially make the layers have a visible/invisible function? I'm not talking about the eye button next to the layer name.

GIMP :: Plugin Or Steps To Select Visible Portion Of A Layer In Image

Mar 26, 2013

I need to get the visible portion of a particular layer in the final image.Lets say i have 4 layers and some portion of each layer is visible in the flattened image i would like to get the portion from each of the layers. The input will be in xcvf format.I will ideally want to automate this and output to file in some format looking like this,

Layer1 ---> Co-ordinates of visible polygon from this particular layer in the image .
Layer2 ---> And so on.

How to proceed with the script. I think brute force is to take each non-transparent pixel and and find the same pixel in all above layers if it is not found it will be added to the region.Or something exists like selection from alpha combined with multiple layers ?

Or if there is a way to find out for an image with all layers visible which pixel came from which layer ?

GIMP :: Make Text Visible On All Of Frames Of GIF

Aug 11, 2013

There's this GIF that I'd like to use for a banner and when I open the file in GIMP, add a text and then check the animation in the playback window, I can only see the text once the GIF has ended but also, I can only see the text for like one second.

Is it possible to make the text visible on all of the frames of the GIF without having to duplicate the text 100s of times and merging them onto each frames?

GIMP :: How To Extract Text And Font From Text Layer

Aug 8, 2011

Gimp 2.6.8 on Linux openSUSE 11.3

I need to extract text and font from a text layer. No problem, I thought, with gimp-text-layer-get-text and gimp-text-layer-get-font.

But I find that the original text layer was cropped withplug-in-autocrop-layer. Nevertheless Gimp lets me edit the text with the text edit tool - after a confirmation dialog.

But I can't get the text with script-fu. Is there a way to manage it? There are many files involved.

GIMP :: How To Create Text Layer

Dec 22, 2012

I'd like to say something good about GIMP other than its free. I'm using GIMP 2.8.2 and Windows 7 64-bit.

How do I create a text layer?

Create new blank imageSelect the "A" text tool from the Tool Options panelClick on the imageEnter text (and select font etc.) in the popup dialogueThen wait... ?

I expected a new text layer to be created at Step 3, and as you can see in the attached screenshot my expectations are unrealistic. How do I get from the popup dialogue to an actual layer of text?

GIMP :: Changing A Text Layer (2011)?

May 11, 2011

I'm having trouble accessing text layers in a logo I am trying to make.

Each time I create text, it gets put into its own layer; that seems to be the way GIMP does things. I'm fine with that. However, once I've completed making a text layer and moved on to creating a second text layer, I can't seem to get back to the first text layer to make changes, such as the colour of the text or the size of the font.

The window for the graphic indicates that there are several layers but I can seem to get back to any previous layer. I don't see any menu options for accessing one of the other layers. PageUp and PageDown don't show me the different layers. It's as if the layer's content, colour, font, etc. can't be changed once I've started a new layer.

How do I access the layers that I created before the current layer?

I am using GIMP 2.6.11 and running on Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 2.

GIMP :: Unable To Change Text Layer Color

Jun 16, 2011

I have created my own graphics from scratch with GIMP, but the resolution to this issue is eluding me.

I imported a GIF map and want to add red labels. I have no problem adding the labels, but I cannot seem to get the text colored red. Before I create the text layer, the text tool shows the color is red, but it still creates it black. All of the suggestions I've seen (yes, I've read the fine manual) reference the same things, including dragging the color from the foreground color (which I've also changed to red). Nothing I've tried seems to work. I've even saved the image as an XCF, but I have the same problem.

GIMP :: Move A Text Layer From One Open File To Another

Mar 7, 2013

I am trying to move a text layer from one open file to another. I left-click on a text layer in one file and drag it to the tab of the other file. It seems to be successful, but there is no layer added to the other file.

If I try copy and paste then there will be another layer in the other file that I have to anchor or set as a new layer. If I anchor it then it becomes a part of the default layer. If I set it as a new layer then there is some sort of success, but I can’t edit it with the text tool as I can if I copy it within the same file.

Is it not possible to copy text layers between open files and continue to edit it with the text tool?

GIMP :: How To Create Layer Mask For Each Of Three Layers With Text Messages

Mar 28, 2012

I am trying to develop an animated GIF to use as a web-ad, I have readthe docs and googled but still having problems :-(

The ad (portrait format) is very simple: a background logo at thebottom of the ad, and three different text messages which rotate. Ithus created a bottom layer with the logo covering the bottom third; asecond layer with nothing but the first text message on the upper2/3rds, another layer with the second text message also in the upper2/3rds and finally a layer with the third text message in the upper2/3rds. While the logo at the bottom should be displayed at all timesthe three different text messages are shown one at a time.

After reading the docs I then expanded each layer with a text messageto be as large as the ad itself. My next step was to try to create alayer mask - for each of the three layers with the text messages, saidlayer mask to cover only the lower 1/3 where it would be transparent.

This is where I ran into problems, no matter what I tried, I could notaccomplish this. There must be something very basic I have yet tounderstand!

Last, in order to create the animated GIF, I exported all four layersusing "replace" in the dialog box. I also experimented with "combine"to no avail. No matter what I tried, I either ended up with an animatedGIF where the logo and the three different text messages over timebecame overlaid, or, an animated GIF where only one thing was shown atone time.

What have I missed?

GIMP :: Can't Apply Drop Shadow To Desired Text Layer

Aug 23, 2011

I'm an infrequent and relatively unskilled GIMP user. I have used drop shadow in the past, and have been using it this afternoon with no problem until I started working on one image where I can't seem to apply the drop shadow to some text. I've got a 3-layer image, a background, a smaller image on a separate layer, and a text layer. Whenever I try to apply drop shadow to the text layer or the smaller image layer, it applies it to the background. I've tried everything I can think of...deleting and recreating the text layer, changing the "level" of the layer, closing then reopening the image...closing and restarting GIMP.. I select the text layer, click "Filter > Light and Shadow > Drop Shadow", and apply and it always applies it to the background.

GIMP :: Resize Text Layer To Align Borders With Edges

Jun 30, 2012

I am trying to re size my text layer so that the borders would align with the edges of the text, but every time I adjust the upper part of the layer the text itself would shift downward, cutting off the lower part of the text. Is there a way I can conveniently adjust the layer so that it looks like the text fits the layer.

Example I am trying to achieve is something like this.

The problem I keep getting is this.

GIMP :: Solid Border On Text Layer With Other Than Normal Mode?

Jan 9, 2014

I made a text layer on top of a textured background and changed the text layer mode to grain extract. I want to put a 3 pixel black border around it that is solid with a normal mode. How do I add a border to my text without it being effected by the text layers mode? The only way that I know how to border is to Alpha the layer to selection then go to edit and stroke selection.

GIMP :: Adjust Size Of Text Layer Without Its Conversion To A Bitmap?

Mar 27, 2012

I have a text layer with width given at its creation. When I later open text editor and enter some wider text, it is wrapped to second line. So I would like to enhance the width of the layer to prevent this. When I add width to the layer using "Layer Boundary Size" menu item, text layer gets converted into standard bitmap layer . I don't understand the logic why a text layer isn't preserved on change of its size .

Is there a way how I can adjust size of text layer without its conversion to a bitmap?

Edge Animate CC :: How To Adjust The Position Of Text In Order For Animation Text To Be Visible

Mar 3, 2013

I have created my Animation:

The stage size you see above is H: 400px, W: 550px.
 
I would like for the stage to be smaller, say H:50px./W:400px
 
Ok so if I change the size of the stage the animation text will not show, so I need to adjust the position of the text in order for the animation text to be visible, but in doing that, I am disrupting the timeline and the animation goes all funny, is there another way of doing this without disrputing the timeline?

Photoshop :: Visible Bands From Each Layer

Feb 19, 2008

I have 10 equally sized layers in my document, each with a different image.

I would like to show a horizontal band (rectangle) from each layer. For example, I want Layer 1 to be visible from 0 in to 1 in., Layer 2 to be visible from 1 in. to 2 in., etc. Does anyone know easiest & least tedious way to do this?

I think this has something to do with masks...

AutoCad :: Objects In Turned Off Layer Still Visible

Feb 8, 2011

I have a plan view of a residential building. I want to remove some columns. I may need them later so I don't want to delete them.

I want to move them to a new layer (layer name: hiddenObject) and turn this layer off to unshow them.

When I move them and turn that layer off, first, the color of those objects didn't turn to layer's color and second they don't disappear.

What is wrong with my procedure?

Photoshop :: Hue / Saturation Adjustment Layer In CS6 - Cannot Do Stamp Visible?

Apr 24, 2013

I noticed that most of the time I cannot copy a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer in Photoshop CS6. (In about a third of all cases it works, in all others I have to create a new Hue/Saturation adjustment layer).
 
Hitting Command + J will cause my Mac to make an error sound.
 
Option + delete also doesn't work half the time.
 
Also: I cannot do a "Stamp visible" above a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Hitting Command + Option + Shift + E will bring another error sound.
 
I have to creat a new layer, and then create a stamp visible. But half the time this doesn't work, either. Hitting Command + Shift + N will give me another error sound.
 
I have to create a different adjustment layer, then an empty layer, and only then I can create a "stamp visible".
 
Only Hue/Saturation adjustment layers are affected by this - but it's a true hold-up.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Rename One Of Default Layer Visible To CUT

Apr 3, 2012

I wanted to rename one of the default layer, "Visible," to "CUT" since that's what our plasma cutter looks for.

However, I created a copy of Visible named CUT.  Now when I open a new drawing, I get the usual, "The following definitions in template Blah differ from the definitions in the style library..."

I know I could update each template, but I'd rather just delete the copied layer in the styles library.  However, I don't see how.  Any tips on removing my extra layer with out starting from scratch? Or how to rename a default layer?
